Description
The construction of the IceCube neutrino observatory is
practically terminated. With 79 strings taking data out of
the 86 foreseen, we are one deployment season away from
completion. I will review the capabilities of IceCube as a
dark matter detector presenting results from searches for
dark matter annihilations in the Sun, in the Galactic Center
and in the Galactic Halo. Candidates considered are WIMPs in
the MSSM and cMSSM scenarios, Kaluza-Klein modes and
superheavy particles (Simpzillas). Discussions will be
focused on the needed dialogue between experimenters and
model builders so any side can use the work of the other to
probe the predictions of given models.
